Short-Term Stays

Short-term stays are a great solution for those times when family caregivers are traveling or might just need a short break from caring for the senior in their life. And many seniors really appreciate the additional assistance a short-term stay provides when they are ill or recovering from illness, injury or surgery.

At its best, respite care not only provides short breaks that can relieve stress and restore everyone’s energy, but can actually become a regularly scheduled reprieve. Short-term stays offer a refreshing change of pace for seniors, with the opportunity to make new friends, take part in our dynamic calendar of events and outings and enjoy our great cuisine. In fact, some of our permanent residents decided to move to Vintage Hills at Prairie Trail after experiencing the benefits of a short-term stay.

Vintage Hills at Prairie Trail offers short-term stays for both Assisted Living and Memory Care with flexible schedules and care packages. We are a small, intimate, family-centric community with a team of professional caretakers who always gear all care towards resident comfort and choice.

Our short-term stay residents are able to experience many of the benefits of Vintage Hills at Prairie Trail, including:

Fully furnished apartment with full bath and wireless resident call system

Meals made fresh daily using fresh and local ingredients by our culinary team
